D) Standard Mode; E) Direct Mode; F) Quick Mode (Oral Only); G) Cold Mode - Riester ri-former RPT-100 Instrucciones Para El Uso

d.) Standard mode
1.) The electronic thermometer normally operates in predictive mode to
provide fast and accurate temperature measurements.
2.) When selected, as indicated by a car on the display, the probe preheats to
35 °C (95°F).
3.) 'HI' or 'LO' will appear on the display whenever the current temperature
reading is out of range, either high or low, respectively.
4.) A 'long beep' sounds when measurement is complete and the final
temperature is displayed.
5.) After returning the probe to the probe well, the temperature is stored. If the
probe is returned to the probe well before the 'long beep' is heard, no
temperature will be stored for the recall function.
6.) Standard Mode is always functional regardless of red or blue probe.
e.) Direct mode
1.) The electronic thermometer normally operates in predictive mode to
provide fast and accurate temperature measurements. However, in
instances when no measurement is detected after 60s or the temperature
does not stabilize after 70s, the thermometer will automatically switch to
direct mode and act as a temperature monitor.
2.) Additionally, the electronic thermometer will automatically switch into direct
mode if the ambient temperature is greater than 35°C (95°F).
3.) A bicycle icon will be continuously displayed whenever the thermometer is
functioning in direct mode.
4.) The direct mode is always functional regardless of red or blue probe.
f.) Quick mode (oral only)
1.) Quick mode is an oral predictive measurement mode intended for
situations where fast temperature measurements are desired.
2.) When selected, the probe preheats to 35 °C (95°F).
3.) Quick mode allows clinicians to rapidly identify patients with 'normal' body
temperatures. If the patient temperature is outside of the 'normal' range,
the electronic thermometer will automatically switch into its standard
predictive mode to provide a more accurate reading.
4.) Quick mode is indicated by an airplane icon on the display. See instructions
within the setting up mode section for information on how turn this feature
on or off.
5.) Quick mode is not available when in cold mode or direct mode.
g.) Cold mode
1.) Cold mode is for use in applications where body temperatures may
be lower than 'normal', such as for patients recently out of surgery.
2.) When selected, as indicated by the snowflake on the display, the probe
preheats to 33°C (91°F).
3.) See instructions within the setup mode section for information on how turn
this feature on or off.
4.) The accuracy and measurement time of cold mode measurements are
equivalent to standard prediction measurements at the respective body
sites.
h.) Taking oral and axillary temperatures
1.) Make sure that the blue probe is attached.
2.) Switch on the diagnostic station by using the rocker switch.
The green control lamp in the rocker switch indicates
that the predictive thermometer is ready to use. Press any
button (button 1 or button 2) and the thermometer will
turn on automatically.
3.) An icon identifying oral or axillary mode is displayed.
The rectal icon cannot be displayed when a blue probe
is attached.
4.) Press button 1, select quick mode just for oral.
5.) Press button 2 to select either oral or axillary mode.
6.) Withdraw probe and apply a probe cover. Indicated mode and site will show
on the display.
7.) For oral temperatures, insert the probe tip deep into the sublingual pocket
next to the frenulum linguae, (vertical fold of tissue in middle of tongue), on
one side or the other, toward the back of the mouth.
Note: Accurate body temperature readings can only be obtained in one of
these two 'heat pocket' locations as shown. Temperatures taken in
other mouth locations will result inaccurate body temperature readings.
8.) Patient's mouth must be closed.
9.) Securely hold the probe in place until the temperature is displayed.
10.) For axillary temperatures, have the patient raise the arm then place
the probe tip in the axilla. Press gently to ensure good contact.
